Hi everyone. Wow, so much has gone on since my last visit here. I'm loving the history lessons....you guys...and gals are in the wrong profession. You should have all replaced those dreadful dreary history teachers we had in school. I may well have learned something that lasted my memory.

Again, I feel compelled to thank you all

I'm not only learning things I didnt know, I'm (meeting)! such lovely people who are so very generous with their time and knowledge - something which is rare these days. You've put my faith back in human kind. Another cheesy grin needed I think

Ok, well dave, I've PM you but I dont think there are any connections there unfortunately.
Also on another dissapointing note, someone kindly put it to my attention that it is not Alfred on the photograph

He was discharged in 1918 after a short enlistment of the army. Medical reasons excluded him so therefore there's not a chance he could have been still been serving King and Country during the time of this photo.
I'm feeling very pessimistic right now.....We seem to take one step forward and two back. I'm running out of options with the family, I mean, I have only mainly names and dates but nothing appears to match. Most definately a head to brick wall moment
